Chapter 100 Mu Ya Jing
The news that Luo Feng had become the seventh inspector of the Limit Martial Arts Academy caused a huge shock throughout the Earth's upper echelons.
In just over a year, the Extreme Martial Arts Academy has added two inspectors—Lin Yun and Luo Feng. Both are young men under twenty, both come from Jiangnan Base City, both came from the elite training camp, and they are also brothers who grew up together.
Luo Feng's inauguration ceremony as Inspector was held in Hongning Base City. It was a small event, but the attendees were of extremely high caliber. Hong himself attended, and Thor also sent a congratulatory gift. Representatives from the five major powers, high-ranking members of the HR Alliance, and leaders of various factions gathered together.
Lin Yun stood below the stage, watching Luo Feng, dressed in the uniform of an inspector, stand on the stage and take the oath, and a complex emotion welled up in his heart.
From low-rent housing to Mingyue Community, from senior trainees to inspectors, they have walked this path together.
"Congratulations, Luo Feng." After the ceremony, Lin Yun walked up to Luo Feng.
"Congratulations to you too." Luo Feng smiled. "You are now the Sixth Inspector, and I am the Seventh Inspector. From now on, I will have to call you Senior Brother."
"Stop it." Lin Yun punched him. "Focus on your cultivation and don't embarrass me."
"The same to you."
The two looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
2057 October.
Fog Island, Australia.
This island, located in the northeastern part of the Australian continent, is shrouded in dense fog year-round and is home to a large number of powerful monsters. A few days ago, traces of the Beast King were discovered on the island, prompting the five major powers, two martial arts schools, and the HR Alliance to dispatch their strongest warriors to Fog Island.
Lin Yun, of course, knew what was going on.
To lure Luo Feng into accepting the true inheritance of Meteorite Star, Babata deliberately released the Wood Crystal, which catalyzed the emergence of a Beast King monster. In the original story, this should have happened two years later, but Luo Feng's growth rate was too fast, forcing Babata to act ahead of schedule.
"Alright," Lin Yun thought to himself. "Getting more Wood Sprout Crystals will make my cultivation much faster in the future. Anyway, it's better to give them to me than to give them to other forces."
Lin Yun followed the team from the Limitless Martial Arts Academy to Fog Island.
The island was shrouded in fog, with visibility extremely low. The air was thick with the smell of damp, decaying leaves, mixed with the stench unique to monsters. Lin Yun's mental energy spread in all directions, covering an area of several kilometers in radius.
"Everyone spread out and search," Hong's voice rang out in the communication channel. "Be careful, there's a Beast King on the island."
Beast King – An existence that surpasses ordinary king-level monsters, equivalent to a human planetary-level sixth or seventh-tier powerhouse.
The group dispersed, and Lin Yun walked alone into the depths of the island. He found a secluded spot and unleashed his full mental power, searching every inch of the underground ground.
November 8th, the second day of our stay in Kirishima.
Hong finally made his move.
The beast king, the "Tentacle Beast," sprang from the island's lake. It was enormous, with a forest of tentacles, emanating a terrifying, suffocating aura. Its strength far surpassed that of ordinary king-level monsters; even planetary-level powerhouses would have to proceed with extreme caution when facing it.
But Hong is not an ordinary planetary-level being.
He hovered in mid-air, emanating a chilling aura. An invisible domain spread out from him, enveloping the tentacle beast within it.
"That's... a domain." Lin Yun's mental power detected the fluctuations of that domain.
His lightning-based domain had reached the ninth level, just one step away from truly stepping into the threshold of the Laws. Hong's domain, on the other hand, was around the first level, close to the second. Although far inferior to Lin Yun's ninth level, Hong's cultivation was at the sixth level of the Planetary Realm, while Lin Yun was at the ninth level. In terms of overall strength, Hong was far inferior to Lin Yun, but having immersed himself in the domain for many years, his application of the domain was far more refined than Lin Yun's.
"boom--"
Hong only made one move.
A black blade of light ripped through the sky, splitting the tentacle beast's body in two before it crashed to the ground.
Everyone was stunned. The strength of the world's strongest person was on full display at this moment.
"Everyone, search underground," Hong's voice rang out in the communication channel. "The treasure should be deep underground."
Underground, it was pitch black.
Lin Yun used the "Earthwalking Technique," a technique based on the earth element, to move through the soil and rocks like a fish. His speed was extremely fast, nearly ten times that of a mentalist of the same level. At the same time, his mental power spread out to the fullest extent, covering an area of several thousand meters in radius.
There's something over there.
Lin Yun's mental power detected a strange energy fluctuation. He flashed and rushed in that direction.
Deep in the soil, a white crystal lay quietly in a crevice in the rock. The crystal was small, only about the size of a thumb, milky white, and emitted a faint fluorescent glow. A delicate aroma of rice wafted from the crystal, refreshing and delightful.
"Muya Jing." A hint of excitement flashed in Lin Yun's eyes.
He put Muya Crystal into his spatial ring and continued his search.
One, two, three...
Lin Yun was incredibly fast. His earth-walking technique allowed him to move with ease through the soil, and his mental power enabled him to easily discover the hidden wooden crystals deep within. While the other councilors were still struggling to dig, he had already harvested eight.
"That kid!" Deep underground, a virtual figure jumped up and down in anger. "How can he be so fast! What will happen to Luo Feng if he finds all of Mu Ya Jing?"
Babata watched with a pained expression as Lin Yun took away another Wood Seed Crystal. Gritting his teeth, he threw out a dozen more from his inventory.
"Fine, fine, let's throw some more out. Anyway, these Wood Crystals were originally meant to lure Luo Feng, so if this kid takes them, consider it... consider it a greeting gift!"
Just as Lin Yun was quietly making a fortune, a major event occurred on the ground.
Third Speaker Mohanderson, another HR Alliance member, and Luo Feng all discovered a Wood Seed Crystal at the same time. However, a high-level lord-class earth dragon was devouring the crystal next to it.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, after the earth dragon devoured the Wood Crystal, its body began to undergo a dramatic change. Its size increased dramatically, its scales became harder, and its aura leaped directly from a high-level lord to a king-level being—the Earth Dragon King.
"What...what kind of treasure is this?"
"To allow a high-level lord to instantly break through to the king level... this..."
Everyone was shocked. The news quickly reached Hong and Lei Shen. The two rushed over and, after examining the stone, discovered that the white crystal was the legendary Muya Crystal—a treasure used for cultivation by experts surpassing even the War God level.
The councilors, aware of the preciousness of the Wood Crystal, were extremely excited. Everyone also learned the true value of the white crystal, and thus, a bloody struggle ensued.
While everyone was focused on the Earth Dragon King incident, Lin Yun discovered six more Wood Seed Crystals.
"Including the ones before, that makes fourteen in total." Lin Yun silently calculated in his mind, "There should be around twenty in total. That's about enough, or we'll be discovered."
He slowed down and, like the other members of parliament, began to pretend to be searching with difficulty.
Less than ten minutes after the Earth Dragon King incident, Hong discovered the first Wood Seed Crystal—of course, this "first" does not include the ones Lin Yun had found before.
In less than five minutes, Luo Feng and another councilor simultaneously spotted one, which Luo Feng ultimately won.
The news spread, and the councilors from various factions went wild. They frantically rushed into the underground, searching every inch of land. In less than two hours, they discovered a total of five Wood Crystals—one for Hong, one for Luo Feng, one for Thor, one for the United States, and one for China.
Lin Yun mingled in the crowd, his face calm, but he was secretly amused.
He already had twenty-one Wood Crystals lying in his spatial ring.
"That's enough, it's time to stop," Lin Yun thought to himself.
But things backfired.
Just as Lin Yun was about to stop, a cold gaze locked onto him.
Lin Yun turned his head and saw a familiar face.
Clement von Schwarz, a senior member of the HR Alliance, is one of the de facto controllers of the European underworld. He is accompanied by another member of the HR Alliance—a burly, middle-aged white man.
"Lin Yun," Clement's voice was icy. "Long time no see."
"Congressman Clement," Lin Yun said calmly, "What is it?"
A flash of hatred crossed Clement's eyes. He would never forget that two years ago, this very boy had stolen his spatial ring and killed his trusted lieutenants, Smith and Jackson. Later, this boy had even wiped out the six war gods he had sent to Australia.
"Hand over the wooden crystal you found," Clement said. "I might spare your life."
Lin Yun smiled.
Are you sure?
Clement's face darkened. The senator beside him stepped forward, releasing his aura without reservation—Planetary Level 2.
"Kid, if you know what's good for you, you'd better behave," the councilor sneered. "Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."
Lin Yun looked at them, feeling no anger, only pity.
To him, two planetary-level second-tier beings were no different from ants.
"I don't want to kill anyone here," Lin Yun said. "You should leave."
"You're asking for it!" the councilor roared, throwing a punch at Lin Yun.
Lin Yun did not move.
A bolt of purple lightning erupted from his body, enveloping the councilor. The power of the Ninefold Lightning Domain was on full display at this moment—the councilor's body instantly froze, his skin covered in charred marks, his eyes wide open, filled with terror.
"you……"
His voice stopped abruptly. His body collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
Clement's face turned deathly pale.
"You...you..."
"I gave you a chance," Lin Yun said calmly, "but you didn't cherish it."
He raised his right hand, and a lightning spear condensed in his palm.
"Wait!" Clement shouted. "You can't kill me! I'm a member of the HR Alliance! If you kill me, the HR Alliance won't let you get away with it!"
"An HR alliance?" Lin Yun laughed. "Do you think I'd care?"
The thunder spear shot out.
Clement's body was pierced by the lightning spear, blood splattering everywhere. His eyes were still open, but he was no longer alive.
A burst of fire turned their bodies to ashes, and then they continued their search as if nothing had happened.
Nobody knows what happened here.
The bloody struggle continued into the next day.
In this struggle, three councilors and more than forty war gods lost their lives. Among them were the two councilors from the HR Alliance—of course, no one knew that Lin Yun had killed them.
By the evening of the following day, seventeen pieces of the wooden crystal had been unearthed.
The Limitless Martial Arts School obtained six, the Thunder Martial Arts School obtained three, the Chinese military obtained two, the HR Alliance obtained two, the United States obtained two, and other forces obtained two.
Lin Yun obtained twenty-five on his own—adding to the twenty-one he had found earlier, and later finding four more. Of course, he didn't report any of these.
"Twenty-five Wood Crystals..." Lin Yun silently calculated in his heart, "That should be enough for me for a while."
Three days later, the entire underground area had been searched, but no trace of Mu Ya Jing was found. The various factions then gradually ceased their search.
After the merit quotas were distributed among the various inspectors at the Limitless Martial Arts Academy, most of the academy members left. Lin Yun also prepared to leave, knowing that the remaining performance time would be reserved for Luo Feng.
"Lin Yun, are you not going to continue the search?" Luo Feng asked.
"I'm not looking anymore." Lin Yun shook his head. "I've already looked for everyone I could. What about you?"
"Let me take another look," Luo Feng said. "I have a feeling there's something else down there."
Lin Yun nodded inwardly. Babata's methods were indeed effective against Luo Feng.
"Then be careful." Lin Yun patted Luo Feng on the shoulder. "Contact me anytime if anything happens."
"it is good."
Lin Yun left Wudao.
The outcome was exactly as he had predicted. Babata first threw out a fragment of the "Crimson Copper Mother," touted as Earth's strongest weapon—it had fallen from the Meteorite Starship. After obtaining it, Luo Feng was gradually lured deeper into the earth's depths.
Finally, at a depth of more than 10,000 meters underground, Luo Feng discovered the Meteorite Star, which had been submerged for more than 50,000 years.
"Phew, that's all for now." Lin Yun sat in the cultivation room, took out a Wood Seed Crystal from his spatial ring, and placed it in his palm.
The wooden crystal emitted a warm glow, and a faint aroma of rice filled the air. Lin Yun closed his eyes and began to absorb the energy within the wooden crystal.
The energy of the Wood Sprout Crystal is gentle and pure, making it easier to absorb than the magic beast crystal core. After absorbing one Wood Sprout Crystal, his total genetic energy increased by a visible amount.
"Good stuff." Lin Yun opened his eyes, a hint of satisfaction flashing in them.
He carefully put away the remaining wooden crystals, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate.
Twenty-five Wood Sprout Crystals, plus the monster cores he had accumulated before, were enough to push his cultivation to the peak of the ninth level of the Planetary Realm. But cultivation level wasn't the most important thing; the most important thing was his comprehension of the laws.
His lightning domain has reached the ninth level, just one step away from truly stepping into the threshold of the laws. The other five domains—earth, fire, water, wind, and light—have also basically reached the eighth level.
"Once Luo Feng emerges from the Meteorite Starship, he'll receive Babata's full guidance," Lin Yun thought to himself. "At that time, his progress will be even faster."
Lin Yun closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the ocean of laws.
